In-Line King-Pin

In-Line King-Pin axles significantly improve the maneuverability of tractor-trailers reducing the area needed when turning – both when moving forward and when reversing.

The In-Line King-Pin Steer Axle was designed specifically for trailer applications requiring forced steering axles. Since the kingpin is “in line” with the axle beam, the wheels can be rotated without scrubbing the tires even if the trailer is stationary.
